N.Z. National Anthem Songtext
von Dennis Marsh

E Ihowa Atua
O ngā iwi mātou rā,
āta whakarongo na;
Me aroha noa. Kia hua ko te pai;
Kia tau tō atawhai;
Manaakitia mai
Aotearoa.


God of nations at thy feet
in the bonds of love we meet.
Hear our voices, we entreat,
God defend our free land.
Guard Pacific′s triple star
From the shafts of strife and war,
Make her praises heard afar,
God defend New Zealand.
